Preview: Wycombe Wanderers v Macclesfield Town

Wycombe Wanderers take on Macclesfield Town at Adams Park on Tuesday evening in a rearranged League Two fixture.

The Silkmen visited Adams Park five weeks ago, only for a sudden blizzard to cause the game to be abandoned. At that time they were on a poor run and had only taken 4 points from their previous 6 matches.

Tomorrow evening they come to Wycombe in much better form, having won 4 and drawn 1 of their last 5 games in all competitions.

In their last 3 league games they have drawn 1-1 at Rochdale and beaten Barnet 3-1 at Underhill, before returning home to win 1-0 against Grimsby Town.

On Friday evening the Silkmen travelled to Port Vale in the FA Cup and booked themselves a 3rd round spot with a fine 3-1 win.

They are currently 15th in the table, having played 17 league games and collected 20 points (11 away from home).

They have scored 20 goals (10 away from home) and have conceded 31 (11 away from home).

Ten different players have scored for Macclesfield in all competitions this season. The top scorer is Simon Yeo with 6 league goals, but he has found himself on the bench in the last few games as manager Keith Alexander has preferred the pairing of Malcolm Gritton and Francis Green. Both Green and Gritton scored on Friday evening, Green netting twice, to take his season's tally to 5 goals in all competitions.

Wycombe Wanderers are still unbeaten in the league and top the table with 37 points from 17 games played.

The Chairboys have only tasted defeat in cup competitions so far this season. The most recent of these was on Saturday when Eastwood Town deservedly ended Wycombe's interest in the FA Cup.

When Wycombe lost 4-0 to Championship side Birmingham in the Carling Cup, they went on a run of 4 straight wins.

When they were hammered 7-0 in the JP Trophy by League Two rivals Shrewsbury, they went on a run of 3 straight draws.

How Wycombe react to being beaten 2-0 by a side three divisions below them remains to be seen.

The Chairboys have scored 22 league goals (13 at home) and have conceded 8 (6 at home).

10 different players have scored for Wycombe in all competitions. Top scorer is Matt Harrold with 7 goals while Chris Zebroski is only 1 behind with 6 goals to his name.

Last Season Wycombe did the double over The Silkmen, winning 2-1 both home and away. Scott McGleish and Rueben Reid scored for the Blues at Moss Rose, whilst McGleish scored both goals at Adams Park as Wycombe came from behind to take all three points.
